Wheel Spacer?
What is this?
Why is it only on the right side of my truck? Do I need another one? If so, where do I get it, besides the dealer? Encountered it when turning the rotors yesterday. It sits on the wheel studs, behind the wheel. I must have encountered it last time I had the wheels off, but I do not remember. :confused: Thanks, Chris |
That is Dodge's fix for the "Drifting to the right" syndrome.
It spaces the one wheel out to "correct" the front end geometry. |
It's not always on the right side and can unknowingly get moved to the wrong place, even the rear, if stuck to the back of the wheel in a tire rotation. Most folks who have removed the spacer say that it made no difference in handling or pull.

i just had my tires rotated and noticed a slight pull to the right could this be the issue. i had the wheels aligned and it still did it. i will have to check that out.

Mine had a spacer on the right side when I bought it. I can't find it now. Must have got lost during tire/wheel changeouts. I do have a pull to the left and have replaced everything on the front end including the steering box. Could this be my problem??
